Qorvo DWM3001C 6.5GHz & 8.0GHz Ultra-Wideband Module

Qorvo DWM3001C 6.5GHz and 8.0GHz Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Module is a fully integrated UWB transceiver module based on the Qorvo DW3110 IC. The DW3110 IC integrates an nRF52833 MCU, planar UWB antenna, accelerometer, power management, and crystal. The RF design is fully validated, tested, and calibrated. Low power consumption allows powering from batteries for extended periods, providing cost-effective implementation of UWB solutions.
